  • “grief Permeates Most Of The Waking Moments Of Those Who Are Mourning. This Book Is A Christian Message About The Hope And Fulfillment That Can Be Known At The Far Side Of That Journey.”

    —ronald J. Greer

    ron Greer And His Wife Lost Their Two-year-old Son Eric In A Tragic Automobile Accident Many Years Ago. In This Brief, Moving Book, The Author Draws On His Experiences As A Father And As A Pastoral Counselor To Offer Hope, Help, And Healing To People Who Are Grieving.

    “ron Greer Has Helped My Wife And Me Grapple With Many Tough Issues Over The Years. But All Of Them Pale By Comparison To His Own Personal Tragedy. The Loss Of A Child Is The Most Devastating, Life-changing Event A Parent Would Shudder To Even Envision. But As I Have Learned Through The Years, Ron Has An Uncanny Ability To Dig Deep Into Our Dark, Unexplored Emotional Mines—turn On Some Lights—and Then Find Those Precious Veins Of Hope.
    There Are No Good Answers To Why Bad Things Happen To Good People. But There Are Good People Who Are Able To Use Bad Things As A Lever To Learn Something Profound About Themselves And—in Rare Cases—to Help Others Find The Same Emotional Tools. Ron Greer Has That Tremendous Gift. Thank God He Is Willing To Share It With Us.”
